RobSR Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Nice stuff, be careful with the door bars at 'the ring' theyve changed there rules on them now and they are abit vague / stupid. might be worth a read for you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Awesome selection of parts there Steven. You should be putting them on your 85 instead haha. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletgt-shady Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Yeh I will look into the rules thanks might leave them off till after just to be safe thanksDon't worry will have plenty good stuff for the 85 still collecting parts for the engine for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Heres a brief, havent seen what seat you have, but it appears the one going in mine wont pass either ha, and the cage will be quetionable.. Bucket seats with ‘ears’ (as the Germans delightfully refer to them) are not allowed. Those are the seats with wrap-around head restraints.The famous Hans device neck-restraint is also banned from public driving.Roll cages with doorbars that restrict access are banned.Roll cages must be padded. Not with proper FIA crash-absorbing materials. Nobody will check that. Just any old foam will do.Aftermarket snap-off steering wheels are also verboten.also there is a fine for drifting now.

starletgt-shady Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Might get away with the door bars as the are pretty low and aren't about the seat ??I have recaro evo seats in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starletgt-shady Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 He ain't cheap but you pay for what you get. He's putting a lot of work into my car. I know a guy that went else where after a quote from tj and ended up putting his car back to the company 3 times to get it sorted and ended up going just black in the end. Not heard a bad thing about tj so pretty confident the car will be flawless when done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 ahright good good. Was maybe thinkin on gettin mine sprayed in the same sort of blue gazs ep85 was. Its a lovely colour but think it would be expensive. Let me know what power you make etc as I've got a zisco inlet aswell so will be good to see what power the td04 will make. What size is your downpipe? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletgt-shady Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 It will be custom made to suit my side exit when I get it on mate. Bit gutted I don't have time before I go away would have been good. When I get back will get the turbo and water injection all set up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Ahright. Im gettin a 2.5 zisco downpipe and a 2.75 straight through exhaust. Hoping for 300 at the wheels but we will see. Mine wont be ready untill next year anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Darraghmh91 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 nice one man id love to go .. how much did it cost altogether Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletgt-shady Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Probably about 2000. Got accommodation and ferry through the sun newspaper. Stayed in Luxembourg for 7 nights. Went to the ring on 2 days. So would be cheaper if you were just going to the ring and nothing else. We went other places and just made a great holiday out of it. Some of my mates went last year but just went for a weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
